ZoekDesign B.V. — Web Design Rooted in Search Strategy
We’re building smarter websites in the Netherlands. Design that works for people and search engines alike. That’s our philosophy.
Core Competencies in Web Design & SEO
We’re focused on creating websites that don’t just look good — they perform in search results. That’s where our real expertise lives.
Technical SEO Architecture
We build websites with search visibility baked in from day one. Site structure, page speed optimization, schema markup — it’s all interconnected. Your site won’t just rank. It’ll convert.
Keyword-Driven Content Strategy
Design means nothing if people can’t find it. We research what your audience actually searches for. Then we build pages that answer those specific questions with real value.
Mobile-First Responsive Design
More than half your visitors come from phones. We don’t just shrink desktop sites. We design mobile experiences first, then expand them intelligently for larger screens.
Performance & Conversion Optimization
We track what matters: page speed, user behavior, conversion paths. Every design decision gets tested. We iterate based on real data, not assumptions.
Visual Design for Search Visibility
Beautiful doesn’t mean invisible. We design interfaces that work well visually and perform in search. Proper contrast, readable fonts, semantic HTML — all intentional.
Link Building & Authority Strategy
Search optimization goes beyond your own site. We develop sustainable strategies to build domain authority through quality relationships and strategic partnerships across the Netherlands.
Built on Real Market Demand
Where We Started
ZoekDesign B.V. started because we saw a gap in the Dutch market. Too many design agencies ignored search fundamentals. Too many SEO consultants didn’t understand design. We couldn’t find anyone doing both well.
So in 2016, we decided to build what we wanted to hire. We brought together designers, developers, and SEO specialists under one roof. Not separate departments. One team, one mission.
The early days were about learning. We built websites, tracked what happened in search, learned what worked. We made mistakes. We studied them. We’ve spent eight years refining an approach that actually integrates design and search strategy instead of treating them as separate concerns.
Today, we’re known in the Netherlands for something simple: we don’t compromise. Your site won’t rank well by accident. We design intentionally for search visibility while maintaining the visual quality and user experience your brand deserves.
How We Work: Five Clear Phases
We’re transparent about what happens when you partner with ZoekDesign B.V. Here’s the process, from discovery through ongoing optimization.
Discovery & Keyword Research
We don’t assume we know your market. We research competitor landscape, analyze search volume for relevant keywords in your space, and understand your specific business goals. This foundation informs every design decision that follows.
Strategy & Information Architecture
We map content structure around user intent and search queries. How should your site be organized? Which pages need to target which keywords? What’s the optimal internal linking structure? We plan this before any design work begins.
Design & Technical Implementation
Now we design. But we’re building on a foundation of search strategy. Every page template, navigation pattern, and content section is designed to support your SEO goals while delivering an exceptional user experience.
Testing & Performance Optimization
Before launch, we stress-test the site. Page speed, mobile responsiveness, conversion flows, search visibility — everything gets reviewed. We optimize based on real metrics, not guesses.
Launch & Ongoing Optimization
Launch isn’t the end. It’s the beginning. We monitor performance, track rankings, analyze user behavior, and make data-driven adjustments. Search optimization is continuous. We treat it that way.
Design & Search Aren’t Competing Goals
We’ve built an approach that treats them as partners. The best user experience is also the most search-friendly. The most discoverable site is also the most beautiful.
“Most agencies choose between beautiful and functional. We’ve learned they’re not opposing forces. A website that’s confusing to navigate is confusing to search engines. A site that’s invisible in search results doesn’t matter how pretty it is. The goal isn’t to compromise on either. It’s to design intelligently.”
— ZoekDesign B.V. Philosophy
Our Core Principles
These aren’t slogans. They’re how we work every day.
Transparency First
We explain what we’re doing and why. No jargon. No black box tactics. You’ll understand our strategy, and you can verify our results with real data.
Results-Driven
We measure everything that matters. Rankings, traffic, conversions, user behavior. We’re accountable to metrics, not intentions.
Quality Over Speed
We won’t rush a project. The right solution takes time. We’d rather deliver something excellent in three months than something mediocre in six weeks.
Long-Term Partnership
We don’t hand off and disappear. We’re invested in your ongoing success. That means continuous optimization, support, and adaptation as your business evolves.
